Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Product Description
Equipped with a powerful 12 amp motor, this self-propelled bagged upright vacuum cleaner delivers exceptional performance and virtually effortless cleaning in both forward and reverse modes. The unit’s 15-inch-wide cleaning path helps get the job done quickly, while its patented WindTunnel technology provides a powerful dual air stream for enhanced dirt pickup and removal. In addition, dual edge groomers loosen and remove dust, dirt, and lint that collect along baseboards, and the variable height settings and on/off brush-roll control allow for switching from bare floors to carpets with ease. When the handle returns to its upright, locked position, the brush roll automatically shuts off and the unit directs all its power to tool suction. On-board tools include a crevice tool, an upholstery nozzle, a dusting brush, and two extension wands. Its deluxe stretch hose extends up to 11-feet when using both wands and the crevice tool. Even more, its on-board powered hand tool works great for vacuuming upholstered furniture, carpeted stairs, and hard-to-reach places. The unit also comes with allergen filtration that captures 100-percent of dust mites and 99.98-percent of ragweed and common grass pollens. Other highlights include a textured handle grip, fingertip “on/off” control, a full-width headlight to illuminate dark corners, a non-marking furniture guard, a check-bag indicator, a 31-foot power cord with quick-cord release, and a carrying handle for easy transport. The vacuum cleaner measures 13 by 15 by 43 inches and carries a two-year parts-and-labor warranty.

Hoover Self Propelled Sweeper![]()
This sweeper was purchased to replace one like it that was several years older. At that time the Self-Propelled Sweeper cost over $400.00 now I got it for less than half of that! What a deal!
At 60 years old I need a sweeper that almost runs by itself and does a great job too.
defective![]()
I purchased this vacuum form Amazon a year ago. It now deposit dirt into the attachment hose instead of the bag. It also produce a strange smell when it is operating. Since Wal-Mart now sells vacuum for $40. I don’t even think it is worth my time to get this vacuum fixed. I am extremely disappointed by this product.
Buyer Beware!![]()
I purchased this vacuum cleaner in April of 08. I purchased a Hoover because the one I had was 20 yrs old and still kicking. I didn’t use it right away because my old Hoover hadn’t quite given up the ghost. I started using it in May and was very pleased. A few days ago I turned it on and noticed a burning smell. I thought a belt had broken. Since you have to use a screwdriver to get into this thing, and since it carries a nice warranty I decided to check for a local service center. Guess what? The closest service center is about 200 miles away. Also, if you want to call and speak to a person at the manufacturer, you have to pay for the call. The toll free number only sends you to the website and very politely informs you that if you want to talk to a person, it’s a toll call. So forget the authorized service center, I just called a local repair and took the vacuum in, I assumed a new belt was all I needed. WRONG! THIS VACUUM CLEANER IS MADE ALMOST ENTIRELY OF PLASTIC! INCLUDING ALL THE MOVING PARTS. There is a plastic “clutch” that was burning. It cost me $50. to have this 10cent piece of plastic replaced. The Hoover Company couldn’t even respond to my e-mail. So consider that 2 year guarantee they brag about as worthless. When I went into the local vacuum repair shop I was actually stunned to see about 25 of these vacuums lined up on the floor. He said they were all trade-ins and that they seem to work for about 6 months. “Disposable” products shouldn’t cost $200. or more.
